What is this plant? http://www.indyattic.com/pics/plant.jpg Some of it
was tucked in the bag, so I planted it too.


That's water sprite, an aquatic fern. Ceratopteris thalictroides. If it
likes your tank, it grows fast and gets quite tall. It puts out new
leaves all the time, and the old ones die off, sprouting baby plants at
the leaf margins. You can grow it either rooted or floating. What you
have is the rooted form.


It's very pretty. I don't have my new lighting system yet, so it might not
make it. I can alway buy more later though.
